''Al TV'' is an American comedy TV series created by and starring singer-songwriter "Weird Al" Yankovic. Several AL TV interviews have been uploaded to a YouTube Playlist. ==Overview== The premise of the show is that Yankovic uses his private satellite transmitter to commandeer the airwaves of a music video station in order to show the videos that ''he'' wants to watch. The program is primarily a parody of MTV itself, including that of MTV's moon landing image sequence. The show features commercials for imaginary products, fake interviews with celebrities, comments on the latest music news, letters from fans, and bizarre ''non sequiturs''. For fake interviews, the show edits footage from unrelated outside interviews and manipulates it such that Al appears to be interviewing the celebrity in a silly or mocking way. ''Al TV''s main focus is music videos, especially his own, as well as others of an unusual or surreal comedy nature. Al's own work consists of song parodies and "cover polkas", which essentially edit together the videos from the original artists with Al's music and vocals synchronized to the video segments. Al occasionally uses this tactic for certain song parodies for which no video was made. A similar show has been broadcast in Canada, under the name ''Al Music''. In addition, Yankovic appeared as a guest VJ on MTV on February 22, 1984, using much the same format he would later use on ''Al TV''. Clips from ''Al TV'' are shown during costume changes in Yankovic's live shows.
